LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers are playing the Philadelphia 76ers. James had eight points, five rebounds, five assists and one steal

The Philadelphia 76ers needed their young star to step up to the plate on Tuesday when they played host to LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers were riding a 4-game winning streak and the Sixers were once again playing short-handed without their stars.

After the Eagles won the NFC championship on Sunday, securing a trip to the Super Bowl in New Orleans, players celebrated as confetti rained down at Lincoln Financial Field. The festivities continued Tuesday evening across the street at the Wells Fargo Center ahead of the Sixers’ 118-104 win over the Los Angeles Lakers.
